I&#39;m not sure what fort it was a model of but I think that it is the marble fortress designed by Michelangelo to guard the harbour of Civitavecchia.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />Bob Robert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-2667210099678540282017-11-14T11:01:41.483+00:002017-11-14T11:01:41.483+00:00&quot;It&#39;s a trap&quot;!
